"consistantly fresh and sweet tone gives a delightful direct reading, warmly expressive but never for a moment, self indulgent. The orchestral ensemble is particularly inpressive...with first class modern digital recording, this is a highlight"
Penguin Guide (3 stars)
"I wondered how Laredo obtained such a marvelous response from the excellent Scottish ensemble...the end results are first class and the performances have a joyous, spontanious quality which I found most appealing...recording quality he has been given is excellently warm"
Gramophone
